History

Description

Grotta Palazzese is a cave, located prominently in the middle of the
cliff face of the Apulian Mediterranean coast.
And it is located in the middle of the city of Polignano A Mare.
The cave has been used for centuries, there are stairs cut into the rock leading
down, there are railings to the sea and a level floor.
The cave and the building above are privately owned, the building is a hotel,
the cave was transformed into a restaurant.
So it is a unique experience to dine in a beatifully furnished cave, righ above
the rolling waves and with a view over the Mediterranean Sea.

The specialty of the restaurant is, what else, sea food.
Various fishes, lobsters and shellfishes are offered.

The cave is used as a restaurant only during summer.
From Octobre to May it is too cold, so the restaurant is relocated to a room
above, with the same view but without cave feeling.
